Moffitt’s father is Tommy Moffitt, who has been LSU’s strength and conditioning coach since 2000 and known nationally as one of the best. Clay, who will be a senior next football season, has truly and literally grown up at LSU.

I met him down in Pierre part last year. He had gone to an assumption high school dance and ended up at the gator corner ( most of you who've been here know what the a gator corner is) a local 24/7 gas station that's the place to sober up or just relax after a long night. He was sober good kid, big ole boy too. Definitely looking forward to him playing

Moffitt is set to join Catholic in spring drills on Monday, but will be held out of contact. He can play tight end, defensive end, fullback and linebacker as well as be a special teams dream.

quote:Being a young Tiger, I’ve always wanted to be like the big guys and play at LSU,” Clay said. “I’m looking forward to playing baseball and football in college. It would be a picture perfect moment to go to LSU. That’s the kind of thing you dream about, especially with Dad there. It’d be wonderful. It’s one of those things I really look forward to doing.”

He's definitely a legit D1 player. I hope he walks on though. It would be really cheap for him to attend in state, especially with tops. Plus that scholarship could go to someone who might not be able to afford it.

I think he's our future FB. With the potential to play other positions

If I'm not mistaken you can't be on any type of scholarship and play football unless it's a football scholarship and you count against the 85. However his father is rich and he gets in-state tuition. I think there is something kind of rule though that you can't actively recruit a kid and have him walk-on. Sure there are preferred walk-ons but I think that has to be a pretense from the beginning. Basically no, he can't get a free ride as a walk-on

If he throws low 90's he must have lost some velocity this year. I was thinking consistent mid to high 80s. He is a decent pitcher but not overpowering. When I saw him people were putting the ball in play against him. I saw quite a few kids this year that throw as hard or harder than him. Pitching velocity and also height/weight are like 40 times in that you don't know what to believe.
